QUOTE(mz.mini @ Feb 6 2009, 09:45 PM) [snapback]1283539794[/snapback] I would like to say as a mother of 3 teenage children (yes i am a older person that likes performace cars) i would have no hesitation of saying that anyone no matter what statis they have in MOTOR SPORT of any kind that if they have any assocciation in motor sport and are implicated in drugs at all even if it is extremley small thay deserve all they get. No matter how easy it will make your lifestyle or business or even any part of your life more comfortable it is not worth it. For example the death/ sexual abuse/ pyhsical abuse/ mental abuse or any kind that may be related to drugs can not be tolerated even if you like the person that is involved , even if they are a friend or aquatince. I personaly could not risk associating myself with someone that is slightly related to drugs even if they are guilty or innocent just for the sake of my children I am sorry for any spelling errors but i take this to heart when kids no matter how old they may be are involved . unfortionately producers/dealers of drugs don't seem to feel the same as yourself and most people, it's sad but at the end of the day it's greed and power that they are after, they seriously can't say they care for people when they are putting the crap on the streets. |

So yes what they are essentially saying is that his titles have been won with the use of drug money. So why is everyone having a cry that his titles have been taken away?

He deserves those tittles regardless of the outcome but give him a life ban if he is found guilty. Smoking a cone on camera, and producing and selling millions of dollars worth of drugs are a little bit different i think.

When people are found with drugs they aren't stripped of what they have achieved Do people watch rugby and say they are all rapists and drug takers? Do people watch swimming and say the best swimmers are all drug users? No they don't! Michael Phelps just got busted smoking drugs on camera, a picture actually taken of him. You don't see him losing all of his gold medals he has won. He's been punished but not stripped of what he has won. Same should apply with ANDRA they shouldn't strip brett stevens of what he has won. He deserves those tittles regardless of the outcome but give him a life ban if he is found guilty. The difference is, phelps smoking pot does not result in him generating money from it giving him a possible unfair advantage over his competitors. Drugs are big business, look at the amount of money and the value of the drugs that were siezed now, then think at how much was sold and distributed. They froze all his titles until the results of the proceedings come out because it is quite clear that money does indeed make the world go round, it can be the difference of a few tenths of a second. Money allows you to buy the latest and greatest gear, afford the best setups and the best people to run/operate your team. That is why they have frozen his titles, because there is a very real chance his criminal activites created an unfair advantage in the seeking of his titles and records. Others have been caught and havent had such a harsh penalty, but now it shows they are going to come down on law breakers, which is probably a reflection of how they want to get the sport back into the public domain. |

Start getting charged with more serious crimes and the police dont fuck around. They are not going to let a charge get thrown out of court over a little fuck up after there has been so much media attention and being such a serious crime. Go back to getting drunk at the pub and making a dick out of yourself. |

Brett Stevens is my drag racing idol. He has amazed me with his team nd his driving nd riding of his veichles. The thing about the drugs dosent suprise me. Brett Steven was probably a bikey in his younger days, and he may or may not have a tat of the bikey gang on him. All im saying is that he may of been doing this when he started his carreer in drag racing, thats why his team nd veichles are up to scratch with the top 10 in the racing team |

look for another drag racing name to appear on the court list shortly, cant say who it is but have been in the sport for a long time and had their share of success. They apparently have been supplying components for pill presses? One of the west austalian connections is also a resonably well known drag racer |
